I am a biblical counselor, ministry leader, and disciple-maker with nearly twenty years of ministry experience. Since 2006, I have served in a variety of leadership roles including worship ministry, women's ministry, mentoring, discipleship, and church planting. My passion for counseling grew out of my own journey of healing and spiritual growth. After experiencing compassion fatigue and burnout in ministry, I began a deeper process of understanding God's grace, healing from past wounds, and discovering my identity in Christ. That journey sparked a desire to help others find the same hope, freedom, and peace that I found in Him. Today, I especially enjoy walking alongside women who are navigating grief, life transitions, spiritual burnout, questions of identity and purpose, and the challenges of growing in their relationship with God. One of my greatest joys is watching Christ restore others into the people He created them to be. Pre-Marital Counseling: Marriage is one of God's greatest gifts, and I believe preparing for it is about much more than planning a wedding; it's about building a life together. My approach combines biblical discipleship, emotional health, and practical relationship tools to help couples strengthen communication, navigate challenges with grace, and cultivate habits that support a healthy, Christ-centered marriage. My hope is that every couple leaves feeling encouraged, equipped, and confident as they begin this new season together.
What to expect, in Cheryl’s words
In our sessions, you can expect prayer, compassionate listening, honest conversation, and Christ-centered guidance rooted in biblical truth and grace. My desire is to create a safe space where you can share openly, process life's challenges, and feel genuinely heard. Together, we will explore the circumstances, thoughts, and emotions that may be contributing to confusion or discouragement while looking to Scripture for wisdom, hope, and direction. I believe lasting change happens as we draw closer to Jesus and learn to see ourselves and our situations through the lens of God's truth.

What Cheryl keeps coming back to
“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”- Matthew 6:33
Outside of sessions
Outside of counseling, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring my new community, serving in my local church, and investing in discipleship and mentoring relationships. I recently relocated to Central Texas, where I am helping launch a new church plant. I love quiet mornings with coffee, meaningful conversations, and seeing people discover God's faithfulness in every season of life.
